All of the tracks posted about on this blog, updated every time I publish. Where I discuss an album, I'll generally add just one or two tracks, to avoid the playlist getting too long.

The other ones from 2021: The other list - 2021, part 1 | The other list - 2021, part 2

This is all music I highly recommended during 2021, and was listening to a lot, but - for one reason or another - have not written about on the blog. There's some really great stuff here!

Another one: Originals vs covers

A constant work in progress, updated as and when I find something interesting to add. The name should explain what this list is all about. Sometimes, the covers are by the same artist as the original, but perhaps an acoustic version, or a later arrangement, remix ... you get the idea!
